This time around, you'll be doing battle with a spider that can roll around, breathe fire, and swipe at you and your companions. You'll notice that there are water barrels all around it, and they're priceless. To eliminate the boss's protections—a necessary move—heft one of those barrels at its head. This will extinguish the flame on top, leaving him vulnerable to a good beating.

You can leap on top of its head when it's standing still and shuddering, and stomp on the top for nice damage. Only do this a few times, though, else you risk being thrown off to the tune of some violent damage. You may not want to bother striking him when he's curled up in a ball, as he'll roll toward you specifically after only a few seconds of aiming. Naturally, you should continuously run around him when he's gearing up for that, and then spring your attack when he's stopped somewhere.

Blizzard, as usual, is a great option here, as it will temporarily freeze the spider in place. Note, however, that simply casting Blizzard won't extinguish the flame, and you must use the barrels to do this.

Once the fight is through, have all four of your characters step on the oversized crimson button, and you'll be taken to the mountain's top. Activate the relic, then return to Larkeicus.

Town: Part Five

Once you've spoken with Larkeicus, leave the library, and a cinematic will play. Following that, return to the Village.

Village: Part Four

Speak to the pink-haired Sherlotta to start a cinematic. When it ends, you'll see a small, black-furred cat running away from you. Have a short chat with Norschtalen, then return to the Library.
